What are 'wide icons'?
Basically, I just changed the dimensions of the icons, and increased the cache they are set at.
This is a screenshot of what they look like in XBMC
This is a sample of other TV Shows I have made icons for.. Dont bother 56k users
http://pics.apartmen...ang/Sample1.jpg
http://pics.apartmen...ang/Sample2.jpg
http://pics.apartmen...ang/Sample3.jpg
Where can I get these 'wide icons'?
Http://xbmc.ckdvt.com
What do I need?
You NEED the May 21st build or later. This will NOT WORK with any previous build! In the May21st build the ability to increase icon caching was added! So if you try this with a older build, your thumbnail will be distorted!
How do I apply this?
I shouldn't have to tell you, but BACKUP before you try attempting this
To sum up what we will be doing, we will edit the MyVideo.xml & add a control in AdvancedSettings.xml
1. Open up this file ---> XBMC\Skin\Project Mayhem III\PAL\MyVideo.xml
The last 3 controls are labelled "listcontrol", "pics thumbnailpanel", and "bg preview". These are the different view types you have (List, Small View, Large View)...we will be editing the Small View (pics thumbnailpanel). We will add 6 lines to this, as follows :
<control>
<description>pics thumbnailpanel</description>
<type>thumbnailpanel</type>
<id>51</id>
<itemwidth>460</itemwidth>
<itemheight>130</itemheight>
<texturewidth>460</texturewidth>
<textureheight>100</textureheight>
<thumbwidth>460</thumbwidth>
<thumbheight>90</thumbheight>
<onleft>2</onleft>
<onright>51</onright>
<onup>51</onup>
<ondown>51</ondown>
<in-clude>contentpanelslide</in-clude>
</control>
The BOLD is what should be added. Now, your done with MyVideo.xml (What we just did changed the size of the icons)
2. Go to XBMC\UserData\AdvancedSettings.xml (If you do not see the file, then create the file and place it in that directory)
Add this to the file :
<AdvancedSettings>
<thumbsize>460</thumbsize>
</AdvancedSettings>
3. Go download my wide icons! Once you have them, rename the file to folder.jpg and place it in the folder of the TV Show it belongs in...
And thats IT! Seems confusing at first, but alls we did was open 2 files and add 9 lines altogether!
((Note: You will need to do this for each new build))
I have a TV Show you haven't done, Can you make one?
Yes! Just go to http://xbmc.ckdvt.com and make a request (TV Shows ONLY for now)
I'm really excited about this feature, and any requests I should have done within a day for you
Is there a template you have that I can use so I can make my own icons?
Yes, There are 2 parts to the icons, the back & the front. There is a file at http://xbmc.ckdvt.com which in-cludes the BACK and FRONT template. Here is a screenshot of how to apply it once you have the 2 files :
http://pics.apartmen...ng/Template.jpg pretttty dang easy
Anything else?
I'll be doing these wide icons in 4 phases
Phase I = All TV Shows (Finished)
Phase II = All Emulators & Homebrew Games (ETA : 2 weeks)
Phase III = All Xbox Games, (ETA : 2 Months~)
Phase IV = Most DVD Movies (ETA : This will probably take a whiiiile)
I hope this didn't create any confusing or discourage anyone from doing this, its REAL simple to do, and as you can see in the screenshots, might be worth it to ya...

I went to the site and I can't seem to find any of the wide icons (even with a search). Maybe they haven't been uploaded yet. Also, your link to xbmc.ckdvt.com is bad.The icons do look great. Thanks for all the hard work.

i'm thinking the "best of both worlds" would be if it were possible to make only the directories within My Videos display in this manner. of course, this would require additional code changes within XBMC itself, since it would mean most icons are cached to some square size while some special ones are cached to the wide format.
any thoughts on this, NineT9?
-EDIT-
unless, would it be possible to use the skinning engine in some sneaky way to side-step the normal XBMC icon functionality? i know the skinning engine is extremely flexible and powerful...

Post by: NineT9mustang on May 23, 2006, 02:49:00 AM
slumberpod77, that is exactly what it does
I had 2 choices, to edit references.xml or MyVideos.xml
References.xml : Change ALL "Medium Icon" views to these wide icons
or
MyVideos.xml : Change ONLY the "Medium Icon" views in MY VIEOS, to these wide icons...
For now, since its only TV Shows, I just MyVideos, and there is a setting in MyVideos you can change, so when you look at all your folders (tv shows), it will list the big wide icons...then once u go in that folder (tv show), it will show the episodes in LIST format, which is perfect since there are ~20 episodes a season and that'd be a pain to scroll through large icons with...
For those interested, I can make it so you can view 4 or 5 of these wide icons at a time, BUT you must realize, the banners/icons will be REALLY small, and u might not be able to tell which tv show is which, but the option is there if anyone wants me to make smaller versions and give the correct xml for it.... just PM or something
-NineT9
sabone, sorry icons are not uploaded yet, should be uploaded in the morning, if they are NOT, anyone is welcome to PM their email address and i will send them the rar with them all (~70 tv icons),
OR
I am on irc, efnet, #xbmc, under the nick MattAAron, just ask me to dcc it to u and i will

and as for the requests of Battlestar Galactica & Grey's Anatomy, I should have those done tonight for you, and uploaded to the site, http://xbmc.ckdvt.com
If you have ANY requests for some wide icon TV Shows that you need, let me know, I will fulfill that request that day!

1. When you do a request, check on xbmc.ckdvt and this thread if it isn't made already.
2. Supply links to good quality images (cuts down our time spent searching for images).
3. Be patient, we do this on our sparetime so sometimes a request might take a while before filled.
4. If you for some reason don't like it, tell us so we can make a new and improved (goes for already made ones too).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GUIDELINES FOR FILLING REQUESTS
1. Write a post telling you are doing the request (so we wont do double the work).
2. When done, upload to xbmc.ckdvt and post a message here saying it is done.

imamafackinhokie,
I think what could be done to improve the site is to just open the icon pages in the main window instead of the center frame.... It worked ok for regular icons, but the addition of the wide icons doesn't fit well with the original design of the site.

for uploading you still need to go to the regular website - http://xbmc.ckdvt.com
and register (the gallery by its self doesnt allow for registration, therefore you must register on the site first and then upload the icons to the user upload icons album in the XBMC Icons link on your left).

oh well, as mentioned earlier i've uploaded the following:

Battlestar Galactica.png
Coupling.png
Doctor who 2005.png
Drawn Together.png
Farscape.png
Hustle.png
Penn and Teller Bullshit.png
Regenesis.png
Stargate Atlantis.png
Supernatural.png
And since then i've also uploaded:
Deadwood.png
The 4400.png
Now, theres a slight problem with the deadwood banner, so if one of the admins would delete it I could replace it with a proper version (a small graphical mistake but i try my best with every one).
These are also ready and waiting for upload:
The west wing
Little britain
I also took the liberty of converting ventline's Stargate Atlantis banner into a new wide icon, so there will be another version of that show available shortly.
Stargate atlantis 2.png <- The entire banner converted to wide icon
Stargate atlantis 3.png <- 2/3 of the banner converted (from the start of the logo to the end of the cast section)
I made the last one to achive a bigger logo, since it kinda goes missing in the graphics.
In progress:

Wow! I've been absent for a few days and look at us now...Great job guys, I believe the Wide Icon collection has nearly tripled since I've uploaded mine!!
I apreciate everyones contribution, can't believe what a good job you guys have done with those icons, they look sexy! Makes me want to buy just about every tv series in this thread... so 170.
And as requested, some more icons for certain shows:
Will be uploaded after I send this reply
Again, great work everyone, good to know there are people out there helping to fulfill requests
Amazing -NineT9
PS For those rare ppl who have had problems applying these wide icons, your images being "distorted" or looking different, try updated this file -> system/imagelib.dll and that should do it

Anyways i deleted the ENTIRE XBMC folder, and then transferred over a fresh May 28 CVS build compiled by TECH version and then redid the instructions.
They still come out all blurry and distorted looking.
Ok so i took a screenshot of what it looks like, perhaps thatll help fix it.

Post by: you_stole_my_atari on May 29, 2006, 12:26:00 PM
I set this up, followed instructions which were really straightforward however I have an issue where XBMC is not picking up the thumbnails when they are stored as filename folder.png - however when I resave same thumbnail as folder.jpg it appears (this is annoying as the background transparency does not then work) - I'm using the 28-05-2006 T3CH build so I was rather hoping that since all of you seem to have this working you might be able to offer some thoughts?
cheers
Post by: xLoial on May 29, 2006, 01:47:00 PM
@you_stole_my_atari: the files itselves should be png... no need of reformatting them, even when naming them folder.jpg (I know this is confusing, but despite the extension, xbmc will still recognize it as a transparent png)
The other option isn't naming the files <foldername>.png, but <foldername>.tbn (mind, they're still pngs, just renamed), and should be in the same level as the folders...
Hope this helps both of you.
and @blittan: Thanks for being supportive, I appreciated that. Tack så mycket!

would it be more convenient if there was another view type called "wide icons" in the view tab on the left hand side. Is this possible?
in your language file, change string 100 to whatever you like
example from:
<string><id>100</id><value>View: Icons</value></string>
example to:
<string><id>100</id><value>View: Wide Icons</value></string>

Its not the root folder icon, it looks like that because that screenshot was currently in a sub folder inside the House folder called "Season 1" so what looks like the root folder would just take me back to the seasons folders.
I'd like to get rid of that arrow thing though, i dont use it and its just annoying to me.

Wow! I've been absent for a few days and look at us now...Great job guys, I believe the Wide Icon collection has nearly tripled since I've uploaded mine!!
I apreciate everyones contribution, can't believe what a good job you guys have done with those icons, they look sexy! Makes me want to buy just about every tv series in this thread... so 170.
And as requested, some more icons for certain shows:
Will be uploaded after I send this reply
Again, great work everyone, good to know there are people out there helping to fulfill requests

PS For those rare ppl who have had problems applying these wide icons, your images being "distorted" or looking different, try updated this file -> system/imagelib.dll and that should do it

You cant get that automatically.
What you do is go to the movie you want to get the info on. Press the white button on the xbox controller and go to "Movie Information". If you are connected to the internet, as this is the only way it will work. It will connect to www.imdb.com and find the movie and bring up the info like that.
Although i don't see why you are asking Nutski how you can get yours looking like that...or what it has to do with Wide icons?

Hey i see a few of you guys have the icons set up in XBMC without the text underneathe it telling you what it is.
What do i edit to get rid of the folder names? So i can just have nice icons...
I played around with it and was able to get rid of the labels. You have to set the text color to 00 alpha. Then you have to tweak the icon size to eliminate spacing. I don't have wide icons for everything though so I ended up undoing it and would rather have a wide icon view type. I didn't figure out how to add a view type though. I just couldn't find anywhere in the xml where you could define a new view.
Here's the xml you need to make the labels disappear and the spacing for them shrink. You can tweak the heights if you don't like the spacing.
<textcolor>00000000</textcolor>
<itemwidth>460</itemwidth>
<itemheight>90</itemheight>
<texturewidth>460</texturewidth>
<textureheight>90</textureheight>
<thumbwidth>460</thumbwidth>
<thumbheight>90</thumbheight>
<thumbalign>center</thumbalign>
Post by: Dr_J on June 04, 2006, 11:37:00 PM
<posy>110</posy>
<textcolor>00000000</textcolor>
<itemwidth>460</itemwidth>
<itemheight>82</itemheight>
<texturewidth>460</texturewidth>
<textureheight>82</textureheight>
<thumbwidth>460</thumbwidth>
<thumbheight>85</thumbheight>
<thumbposx>-5</thumbposx>
<thumbposy>0</thumbposy>
<spinposy>415</spinposy>
Just replace the xml from the original post with either of these and see which you like. You can tweak from there. Here's a link to the XBMC doc on the various tags for the control: http://manual.xboxmediacenter.de/wakka.php?wakka=ThumbnailPanel&v=yq6

Dr J, nice work! i will play around with this code in my skinning project if thats cool with you. i will credit you in my worklog, the main reason i wanted to use your code is to just speed stuff up a bit. wurd
I'd really like an orange + green(Miami Hurricanes colors) accent skin with mostly dark tones and occasional whites for spectral highlighting effects. I thought about doing one myself, but dunno if I feel like trudging thru all the xml to get it how I want it. Let alone creating the textures. I've skinned other things like this and it can be quite a lot of work. Especially if the target changes much with subsequent releases ;0

Well, it kind of depends on how your files are organized. I use a samba share and browse directories. I have my views setup to auto switch to the icon view only if there are icons in a given folder. When there is no icon for any file/folder I get a list instead of icons. This works pretty well for my situation. Though yours might be different.
Like I said before, there's a big problem when you don't have icons for every item your viewing. I originally tried this stuff about a week ago. At the time I didn't have icons for everything and was awaiting a new HD to reorganize things. I also had to create a couple new icons. Now that I've done all that this setup works pretty well for me so I tweaked on it last night to get the 5 icon view. I only put icons at levels where I can give everything a wide icon, otherwise this view fails as the text is missing. That's why I didn't use this solution until now.
I wish there were a better solution, but the control is a tad less flexible than I'd like it to be. Right now it's the best I can do and with the right setup it can work quite well.
Post by: fatfonzi on June 05, 2006, 12:37:00 PM
Thanks for the info and you make a good point about not having enough wide icons for everything...WHICH brings me to my next task!
I am gonna make my own icons for every one of my own file/folers if someone would please post instructions on how to use these templets!
Could someone give a step by step on how to make these wide icons (and please don't direct me to the templet)? I would be more than happy to upload as many as i can do. I've tried all night but couldnt completely understand it. I have the time but very little PS skills. But I could easily pick it up with a walkthrough. I'm sure many on here could benefit from a TUT or walkthrough.

Right, i have seen that quite a lot of people have been asking thow to remove the text from below the icons... there have been several solutions given, most involve modding teh text colour. This is a crude method and one that doesnt need to happen anymore. After lot of requests, we finally got spiff to impleement a hide file names in the cvs. I dont think a t3ch build has happened yet that inclues it, but ii build myself so im not sure
But there will be one tomorrow (6-6-06) as mc360 is out
For those of you that want to know how to make 5 icons apear as apposed to 3, you need to open up myvideo.xml and change the itemhight to 80

<type>thumbnailpanel</type>

How do you mean?

Say, in the "24" folder, there's the "Season 3" subfolder and in it there are the 24 episodes; it would be nice to have a custom icon for them too instead of the stock icon.
I also made those if anyone is interested (I couldn't find how to upload them to the site however :/) :

this is obviously goign to prove to be a right ball ache to people with large vid collection. I have asked the devs, but i dont think there is any plans to get the folder art cached for all the episodes, though this is not what was suggested.
Any links to decent renaming prog for vids would be a good start

QUOTE(yeawhatever @ Jun 5 2006, 08:49 PM)
the episode thing could work, BUT it would take a lot of effort to rename files. You would have to have the icon named the same as the video file ie scrubs - episode 1.avi would be scrubs - episode 1.tbn
Wouldn't it be possible to have one folder containing ALL thumbnails (i.e. Q:\Thumbs\) and in that folder you put files called Episode 01.tbn, Episode 02.tbn, Episode 03.tbn, etc. and then each folder containing the videos would have their files called Episode 01.xxx, Episode 02.xxx, Episode 3.xxx, etc. Since all episodes from every show would have the same file names (but in different folders), you would have to place the episodes thumbnails in the thumbs folder (say Episode 01 through Episode 30 just to be on the safe side) and then it would automatically load the thumbnail with the corresponding filename? Maybe it's already possible, I'm just throwing ideas here.
Saw II icon :
Post by: alexpb1 on June 05, 2006, 08:02:00 PM
I took each episode i wanted an individual icon for an opened it in VLC Media Player. I then found a part that I thought would good a person a good indication on what its about, and then went paused it and went to VIDEO>>Snapshot, and then it saved it in my documents. I then resized it in photoshop and saved the image and renamed it with the extension .tbn
It does look cluttered when you put all the .tbn files in with the tv show files, but if you change the file to "Hidden" and make hidden files invisible under the view section on your computer, its becomes really nice and clean looking.
So now it looks like this in XBMC (i really like it)

It will deffinately be nice to not have hack the text thru the alpha. I'm curious how it's implemented though. Do they remove lables only from items with icons in an Icon view and leave lables on those without icons? Or is it less discriminating?
Its a direct implementation of the way its done with my pictures (go to ettings and turn on hide file names)
just to clarify, it hides the names when in thumb mode (big or small) but not in list.... i had to edit a few of my thumbs for large icon mode so you knew what they were, but itsa 2 minuit job in PS
It works really well with autoswitching on. Kusod to spiff and jmarsh for there work
I know it was added to games section as well, but in last build i cant see the setting, thouugh that might be more a skin issue.

Just wanna touch on a couple subjects real fast
For those people that dont want the FILES to be in wide icons (Folders are in wide, and files are in wide), what you need to do is go to SETTINGS, go to MY VIDEOS and enable "Autoswitching to thumb view", and this way, you will see the Wide Icons for your tv listings, then once you go into the folder, it will be in File Mode where u can view the files in a list... alexpb1 has a great way too
I have finished the EMULATOR wide icons, which I will post a screenshot here soon, 40 Emulators
I would like to finish the Wide Icons for XBOX GAMES. I have a list of all the xbox games, and would like to put it up at ckdvt.com, and perhaps if anyone would liek to help out, you can just log in, and check a box next to the game(s) you can work on, and it will show THAT game is being worked on, once its finished, itll show its done. just so we have an organized way of getting the xbox games section complete...
Well, great to see how far this has gone, thanks to every single person who has helped out and replied

Is the folder still just showing the default folder icon?
For games icons, add the following to MyPrograms.xml
CODE
the icons must be named the same as the main executable file but with a different prefix, so if the games main file is default.xbe (which it generally should be) you would rename the icon to default.tbn and copy it into the same directory

Mini tutorial on how I make these icons (may not be the best way)
Make a 448 x 75 image with your design.
Copy this over the 'Template - Back.png' file.
Make sure to cover (on all sides) the thin white line that outlines the black section of the template
Select the back template as the layer to edit (keep behind your design).
Click the Magic Wand Tool
Click where the black would be on the back template (but you are clicking on your design.
This should make a selection of the ovalish back template (but not the fading of the template).
Click back to edit your design's layer
Invert Selection (Shift-Control-I)
Use Eraser tool and erase all parts of your design that isn't in the template's oval.
Copy the Template-Front.png on top of all this.
Line up the template-front on the template-back and your design (as best you can)
Change the opacity of the template-front to make the template-front more transparent (so the design is seen brighter).
Save as .png
Parts of this may be very confusing. Post if you have any questions/issues/etc. Also post if you have a better way to make these.

The way i do this is to create the image i want for the icon in a canvas sized 460x82, select it all and select copy, use the Magic Wand on the back template (mine is set at a tolerance of 35 i think) and then select `paste into`, you can then have your image as the selected layer and move it about inside the border of the back template to line it up, then add the front template as the top layer, i make mine with an opacity of about 70%.

Put the icons in the game folder and name them 'default.tbn'. If you already have icons cached, delete /userdata/thumbnails/programs or /videos, etc. Restart.

Theres so much talent in this thread, that if you dont like one of the emulator icons I made, go ahead and request another to be made and im sure someone would pick it up and do it for ya
To be able to apply wide icons to emulators (and anything in my programs), do this :
Step 1
Go to http://xbmc.ckdvt.com and get the icons of course
Step 2
Do exactly what you did to MyVideos.xml, and apply those lines to MyPrograms.xml
Step 3
Take the EmulatorIcon.png, and rename it to default.tbn and move it to the folder it belongs (IE., Nintendo64.png should be named to Default.tbn and placed in E:\Emulators\Nintendo64\Default.tbn\) of course, your emu directory might be different
Thats all. For those that can't get it to work, you might need to delete both 0face008 folders under E:\UDATA & E:\TDATA on your Xbox (including the system.bin file in one of these folders). You can simply hold thumbs clicked while xbmc starts to delete the directories...
Thats all, now I haven't had a chance to try these wide icons in MC360 yet, so if anyone has had success, let us know if they look good in it? I'll be trying it later on tonight, but in the meantime in case people are wondering

<AdvancedSettings>

<ondown>51</ondown>
<animation effect="fade" time="300">WindowOpen</animation>
<animation effect="fade" time="100">WindowClose</animation>
</control>
Then I go to XBMC and change the view to Icons
I FTP loose change.png to F:/Movies/Loose Change
Then I renamed loose change.png to folder.tbn
Restart and check the loose change folder and it is still a folder icon
Change folder.tbn to loose change.tbn
Restart and check the loose change folder and it is still a folder icon
So what might be wrong?

i'll keep my eye on the changelog then. I can't wait. There are so many functions and alt views that are associated with Tv shows that aren't with movies. I can't wait to see some new code

Might as well start on the list.
2 Different versions of COD: FH.
I (and likely others) am much more likely to do game requests if logos/screens/etc. are provided for the game requested. Also extremely helpful is the game's official website. Many times the icon can simply be made out of the website's banner (See Castlevania: CoD and Counter Strike above for example).

I am still confused as to how to get rid of the left over banner that is outside of the template Ne0 said to use the rounded rectangle tool and I guess I don't understand how he is using it because it fills the pixels when I do it I am moreso looking for something to select the template and then select the inverse and deleting that
Could someone go into more detail

Post by: imamafackinhokie on June 09, 2006, 12:47:00 PM
So I was going through this thread and trying to figure out what icons I should start to work on for people, then realized, I would waste my time doing an icon or someone elses time, while another person worked on the same thing. So I found a request system online that works basically the same as a help desk request system meaning that a person can request a icon, and anyone a person can reply to that ticket, saying that they will work on it....finish the picture....upload it to their own site...or to the gallery where all of the other icons are... provide the link, and close the ticket.
After the ticket is closed, an admin will delete the ticket to clear up clutter. I hope that this will work much better than browsing through the forums for icons needed, and this provides less of a chance of icons being looked over.
The website also has a lot of new downloads available for the MC360, the icons, PMIII (waiting on slumberpod77) for the newer PMIII release, as well as all of the latest icons created by everyone here on the scene.

Try this....
Use the crop tool. Set the width and height to that of the icon template. Then select the area you want with the crop tool. Crop and Copy into back template. Then follow what NineT9mustang said. Also another tip, if you double in click on the top layer it will take you to blending options. You decrease the opacity of the top layer so its not so dark.
This is all for photoshop btw.
Hope that helps.

Listen...Use the rectangular marquee tool to select the image you want, then click edit and click copy..
Then click on magic wand tool and click it into the black part of the back template (it will highlight around the back template) then click edit and then click "paste into"! there will be no left over edges.
hope this helps

I'll be honest.. I'm not really a fan of the Xbox/Xbox Live logos on the left. Partially because the Xbox logo looks streched and partially because the games on the hard drive will never be used for live, so it isn't like they need to be labelled that way.
Just my opinion. Please don't take it personally. Otherwise, the rest of the icon looks great.

GREAT work on these wide icons by the way!!!! Very very nice!
So, everything displays very nicely, and I haven't had any trouble getting the wide icons to show up.
But, when I enter the directory, my files list will NOT remain in LIST view.
If I change it to LIST, i can see them of course, but if I go out of the directory, and then back into it, they revert back to icons view, which takes away the text, and there are just too many files to browse in this mode.
Oh! Yes, I have made sure that in my XBMC settings | MyVideos has the automatic thumbnail setting turned OFF.
Any reason why I can't get them to stay in LIST mode?

Yeah, this occurred to me after I gave up on it for the night - as did autoxer's suggestion. Thing is, I don't have any thumbnails attached to my Videos...
...but thank you both for the suggestions. I'll reinstall XBMC when I get the chance and report back. I think I'll just stick to the Videos wide icons when I do.

Ill host em for as many downloads as i can
I have 60gb of bandwidth per month and use less than 5% for now
I have a question though i only got thru 12 or so of the 20 pages
but if your movies are in avi format is there a wayy to still show the wide icons since they have no folder like games, tv series, do?
if so how

say your movie is named "xbox-scene.avi" then you would need to have a thumbnail named "xbox-scene.tbn" as far as i know it should work. i havent had movies on my xbox in a while. just make sure your thumbs are the same name as the movie file just with the extension ".tbn" on them.

.Gif, .jpg, .bmp, .png, whatever. then just put that file inside the same folder where your .avi movie/tv show is and rename it to the movie/tv name and change extension to .tbn.
Now it shows up in XBMC and looks nice.

but if anyone has some complete packages or a torrent please post
i will up them to my site and offer for direct download to help with bandwidth
and make it more accessible for everyone
I kind of have to agree with TopNotch, The site is not always working right for example the new icon link is not working when you go to it the images don't show, if you click on the icon them self it opens in a new page wit double http:\\xxxxetc..http:\\xxxxetc. that needs to be fixed. also i can't figure out how to upload images there half the images from this forum i can't fin there I know it takes works to put them there but if you could fix the upload feature we will be puting the images there instead of : http://i58.photobucket.com/ . either fix the site so we can upload images there or letTopNotch help with hosting or mirror your site. I think some how the icon are getting lost. I may be wrong or I don't understand how to navigate the site. and Don't get me wrong I like the site, forum and the hard work everyone has put into it. but we need to preserve the icons.
TopNotch you can put the icons from the site into a zip format and download them. the need of a bit torrent may not be nesesary, but I you will like to take the task of doing a torrent take the offer from imamafackinhokie and download the icons and create a torrent and upload them, but that shoud not stop there, the torrent can be updated every month with the new icons. I know that is a task that will take work to do are you ready for the challenge.. Because of that i think the site is the best to download just what you need, but it needs to be corrected and put up to date. sorrry i went to long I will let you go for now... sorry ...

if you haven't registered on xbmc.ckdvt.com - do that first.
after that click on the XBMC icons, and go to user uploaded icons, and upload the icons there.
I also added a upload icon link to the left side of the site, now users can upload whenever they would like (make sure you are logged in first).

Yes the site is working for the newly updated icons. I have RSS feeds that scroll through that show what icons have been added lately. They work great when reading them in thunderbird, however I do want to make a scrolling list, which I haven't been able to implement yet.
The RSS isnt entirely complete, but it works pretty well. I will post links for RSS feeds for all albums shortly.
Also a reminder for those who want to upload many files, add all of the files to a zip and then upload the zip, and the site will automatically extract the contents of the zip.

Hey TopNotch thanks for all your work but as far as uploading and downloading I think everyone should stick to imamafackinhokie site that way they are all in the same place. As far as the fonts blending in that all has to do with who made the icon and what they wanted it to look like.
also here is a link for some good quailty front covers Link

These are all going onto http://xbmc.ckdvt.com aswell, so listing the complete pack isnt really nessecary, you just need to look on there to see whats in it.

btw does anyone have a good xlink kai icon???? I want to game it to the icons that I using on my system
Post by: imamafackinhokie on June 13, 2006, 12:21:00 PM
You can now see which icons were newly added, so you don't have to go through and search through the icons or type in the name of the icon anymore to see if the newest one has been added. Here is a list of the most likely to be used RSS feeds of the icon sets:
Xbox Game Icons Tilted
http://xbmc.ckdvt.co...hp?g2_itemId=28
Wide Icons - Shows
http://xbmc.ckdvt.co...g2_itemId=16787
Wide Icons - Xbox Games
http://xbmc.ckdvt.co...g2_itemId=18165
Wide Icons - Movies
http://xbmc.ckdvt.co...g2_itemId=19002
Wide Icons - Emulators
http://xbmc.ckdvt.co...g2_itemId=18581
Wide Icons - Apps, Drives, & General Icons
http://xbmc.ckdvt.co...g2_itemId=19487
I will add the rest later, but these have been tested and work very well with Thunderbird. I hope to have a better serving webpage with the newest ones scrolling or pictures of the newest icons through the RSS feeds up soon.
Enjoy.

and im sorry for asking if its already been asked but without a search feature and having over 30 pages its a pain to look through it all
technically, sure it could be done. Easily, thats another situation alltogether.

is it possible for you to change the page set up to allow us to view more icons on a single page?
Theres 45 pages...with only 9 icons per page, so it kind of sucks.
It'd be better for me if i could set it so it shows say...50 or 100 per page so i didnt have to go through them all.

This is just my opinion though... You should DEFINATLY give mc360 a shot, there are A LOT of great features to it
I also noticed my Mystery Science Theater 3000 Wide Icon did not get uploaded properly a long time ago, so here it is (sorry if anyone noticed, its up at ckdvt now)
Post by: NineT9mustang on June 15, 2006, 11:07:00 AM
As far as what mc360 has that pm3 doesn't... I'd say the ability for custom themes (Carbon, Glass), the ability to change the backrounds a lot easier then PM3, It's unique 360 Dashboard look, Visualization behind skin, etc...
but PM3 also has its benefits too, which I wont go into because we all have used pm3
so all in all, its a matter of opinion, but you gotta try it out, there are a lot of ppl that wont go back to pm3, you might be one of them
I just WISH there will be a Project Mayhem 4 :/ Can't even imagine what it'd look like...Choke's a god among graphic artists

I couldnt edit, but I changed the site to 2 columns and then 50 rows, this should make more icons on one page, and I finally got the icons to sort by name, so it should be easier to find them when browsing.

Unless your post is taken down while it's filled? I guess that could be the case but it doesn't make any sense...
Ok, I found them. They were in the DEAD area. Apparently they were closed because the "Default" category isn't supposed to be used for requests.

That is my fault, I will create the movie icons category, I forgot to do that again.
Please request the movies again in 5 minutes after I create the category.
I'm pretty sure I was only closing tickets that I finished creating no matter what category they were in, I wasn't just deleting them if they were in the wrong category.

I do agree with PunX0r, I got the wide icons all working, and in mc360, they do feel a little out of place, maybe it's due to the tendency for dark icons, or the dark drop shadow. But like he said they do look very much at home in PM3. But I think I read there are almost 1k wide icons now? That would be a lot of work to go back through all the icons. Maybe something as simple as having two sets, one MC360, on PM3, and when people make a new wide icon, and have the base layer all done, would be great if we had two sets of templates that could be applied.
Now that being said, I followed the tutorial for getting the wide icons working in MC360, and I saw there is a nother voting poll on what resolution people run XBMC on, and 720p, 16:9 is in the lead. So has anyone looked into getting the wide icons to stretch more in 16:9? I tried different values in the MyVideo.xml, but only get a black screen. I attached a quick screen shot, and you can see there is quite a bit of excess space on either side of the icon.
Cheers...

I would disagree. I think something like this is neccessary because these icons look so much better pm3, and dont quiet fit mc360 so something like this would be a great idea... It would be better now, then down the road when this collection gets to 3,000/5,000...
But in all honesty, I think we should wait til 2.0 is out, because according to the xbmc forums, after 2.0 is released xbmc will be working on a solution for tv shows/wide icons, and I'd like to see where they go from it. It could possible change compared to how it is now...
I'm just trying to prepare for the future, hence why i have been absent in creating these icons lately, not sure where this is going until 2.0 is released... anyone agree with me here? :/
Post by: NineT9mustang on June 18, 2006, 09:43:00 AM
The people (us) just create a banner, a long rectangular banner (no need to trim the edges, etc)... and when its shown on a skin, the skin could apply some effects to it, pm3 with its scanlines, mc360 with some shiny effects...
but we run into a problem doing this, 1, Chokemaniac is the designer of PM3, and I'm not sure if we can bring him back to get a default designed template for icons in PM3 for future builds...? So beause of that we need the template provided currently...
The idea is perfect, and would make everyones life easier, but possible? im not sure...
Post by: blazeuk on June 19, 2006, 03:50:00 AM
I liked the previous one made, but it wasn't uploaded so i made my own.
I like the idea of making the banner which could then be changed to whatever look is prefered, if new design layouts came about though, it could cause problems actually implementing it into that new banner style (you could end up with a whole lot more requests from people who want them made completely)

Where do my requests show up after they've been "done and uploaded?" In the "Wide Movie Icons" section, right?
Apparently Lord of War and Harold and Kumar have wide icons done for me but I can't find them anywhere on the site. Does anyone else have different luck?

I did these some time ago, and these will be the last wide icons I do until after xbmc 2.0
Hope you enjoy, some of them are crap cause i didn't spend too much time :/
These will be at ckdvt shortly
REMEMBER you must name these wide icons to default.tbn, not folder.jpg like you did with videos, and to get wide icons in MY PROGRAMS, you edit myprograms.xml, not myvideos.xml... you still apply the same lines of code though

Listen, you doing good but remember, you should try these 3 things...
1. Keep the ends rounded. Look at some others and you'll know what I mean.
2. Lighten the opacity level on the top template. that'll make the icon less dark.
3. And finally, try not to stretch the image too much...the image gets distorted and blurry if you do. If the image is way too big or way too small after cropping it, then keep looking for the right image. You will find it!
I'm not trying to bash you, i'm trying to help ya!
Otherwise you're doing a great job...keep it up

Made some versions with english titles. A Tale of 2 Sisters didn't turn out too good though.
One other pointer is, if you can, try to extract the title text from the image rather than stretch, text can only be stretched very slightly before it starts to look weird.

will go do this now

QUOTE(blazeuk @ Jun 24 2006, 09:22 AM)
To make the edges round, you just need to select the outside of the template and delete....or you could just get the eraser tool and remove it.
Even faster way is use the magic wand tool on the back layer, click the middle of the template on the black area, then find the image you want, edit it however you want then go to Edit>Paste Into. Then moe it around till it looks proper

Instead of setting <itemheight>0</itemheight>, try setting it to 3-5px greater than <thumbheight>
In your case above, make <itemheight>93</itemheight> and <thumbheight>90</thumbheight>

texture height / witdh = the size of the "is selected" highlighter texture.

For those interested, Here are 100+ Wide Icons for Xbox games :
Here is some more :
http://pics.apartmen...g/GameList2.jpg
And even some more :
http://pics.apartmen...g/GameList3.jpg
I did these some time ago, and these will be the last wide icons I do until after xbmc 2.0
Hope you enjoy, some of them are crap cause i didn't spend too much time :/
These will be at ckdvt shortly
REMEMBER you must name these wide icons to default.tbn, not folder.jpg like you did with videos, and to get wide icons in MY PROGRAMS, you edit myprograms.xml, not myvideos.xml... you still apply the same lines of code though
Call me stupid stupip stupid but i still can't find this icons anywhere. Here is where I have been looking for them = http://xbmc.ckdvt.co...llery2/main.php and they are not there is there another place I can look for them?

Yeah I know they are on the site, I think, but ninet9mustang doesnt remember where he put them, and I have so many folders, I can't go through them all just to find the ones he uploaded, so until he can remember where he uploaded the files to, they wont be on the site.

Lucky Louie - Sample Image
Kyle XY - Sample Image
Thanks
yeah to be honest, i think only myself and maybe 2 other people were filling requests.
We are trying to implement a new design for the icons, and this will take some time, but anyone who is interested in collecting banners, logos etc for us please send me a pm.

Then lower the top template's opacity, and click on the Image layer then ctrl click the top templates preview image to select it and press ctrl+alt+i and then press delete

So since the FILENAME will be inthe banner, i think it'll be better so we'll just need to create the wide icon with PICTURES instead of having the game title logo which always takes up alot of room
Hopefully this will be out soon
got a lot of ppl waiting...Edit: fhsasbvp, everything you need is in the very first post.
Dimensions? It's there
Resolution? It's there
Rounding Corners? They are rounded...
Why 3 layers? Because the BACK gives you the shadow, the FRONT gives you the scanlines
Should the image use the entire space? Of course? unless you want empty space everywhere?
Post by: NineT9mustang on July 08, 2006, 10:53:00 PM
1. The icon dimensions/resolution doesn't matter. Because the templates are the resolution they should be at
2. To apply the wide icons, you simply put the FRONT.png in FRONT of your "custom image", and the BACK.png BEHIND your "custom image". Hence the name of the templates... I posted a example in the beginning of this thread, so I understand if you've missed it because of all the pages
http://pics.apartmen...ng/Template.jpg
If ya have more problems, just let us know, no big deal
Post by: fatfonzi on July 08, 2006, 11:20:00 PM
Listen...open up your back template in photoshop, then take the image that you want and drag it into photoshop then crop it or shrink/stretch (don't shrink or stretch it to much or it will distort) to the size of the template, which is 460x82 then click edit then click copy then click on the magic wand and then click anywhere IN the back template (the area around the back template will highlight) then click edit and then click "paste into". Your image will now take the shape of the back template (the coners will be rounded for you. then click on the front template and drag into photoshop then ckick on copy and then click on the image that you pasted into and click paste...(make sure you click on the image that you created first before clicking paste)the front image will now be layered ontop of the image...now just move it (move it by clicking top tool not the left one but the right one) to where it should be to cover the image completely. Finally click on opacity (far left where it shows each layer) and change the opacity to whatever you want...try 50%!
That is the basics, so try that and once you get that then you can try using the other tools and mutiple layers...etc.
Let me know if that helps

Thank you so much. This is exactly what I was looking for. Was this information in previous posts. Because I went through all 40+ pages today looking for it and I never saw it. Thanks. Here is my first Icon. I know its not much, but I wanted to learn how to do it first. Thanks again
how do I get rid of the white border?

I just tried it and the white border does show up in xbmc...but I think I know how to fix it so it's not there...I'll keep you posted
ok I figured out the white border thing, however now I am having trouble getting the top part to snap to the other parts. I even tried hiding the icon image, magic wanding the back image again and pasting the front image into that. then bringing the icon back and rearraning the layers so everything is right. However it seems as if the front layer does not completely cover the other two layers as demonstrated below
Post by: fhsasbvp on July 09, 2006, 10:51:00 AM
I left the front opacity dark so you can clearly see what my problem is
thanks for your help. As soon as I am done and have all of my icons created I will upload them and create a clear step by step tutorial on how to do this

Only thing I can think of is maybe the way your template is layered. Try downloading the template I posted for the green flame icon back a couple of pages in this thread. Download that and delete the inner layers and try it. Only thing else would be the program. Hope this helps.

and see if you can find what you are looking for and if you can't find it there or don't like the one there request another one and explain that you want another made because the one on the site is not of your likes.... maybe also supply a link of the images that you want to be used on your new request.

I made this one a few days back
before you request you may want to do a search here:
http://xbmc.ckdvt.co...llery2/main.php
and see if you can find what you are looking for and if you can't find it there or don't like the one there request another one and explain that you want another made because the one on the site is not of your likes.... maybe also supply a link of the images that you want to be used on your new request.
have a nice day
Thanks, looks great! I did a search earlier today and couldn't find any...weird.

Download the front and back templates and open them in ps.
Open a new file. I make it 470 x 72 px. This is where you create your banner. After you create it then file--save for web. Save it as 'bannername'.png. Then open 'bannername'.png. copy it on top of the back template. Then copy front template on front of the banner. Drag each layer to the top right corner of the template. They will snap in the corner when you're close enough. Now they're all lined up correctly. click on the back layer. With the magic wand click in the center of the back layer. It should highlight a rectangle in the middle. then Select--inverse. This selects the outside stuff you will delete. With this selected click on your banner layer and hit delete to erase the outer edges. Select--deselect. click on the front template(top layer) and change opacity to about 50%. Then save for web. save as .png. ... you're done.

I opened the Front and Back templates in PS. Copied the Front template and pasted it in front of the Back template. Then Save As, and from the drop down select PNG and save as Template Master.png. Once you have your image you want placed in the template in your clipboard, use the magic wand to select the back layer of the template and do a Paste Into (Ctrl+Shift+V). Then save as whatever.png.

I'm real close, but how do you copy 'bannername'.png on top of the back template. It won't let me drag/drop onto it - or copy/paste. I also have only one file 'template'.png that I d/l from earlier link. Are there 2 templates (front & back) or are they together in that one file? Sorry for all the ?'s - but I really can help contribute to these once I get it...Thanks for patience.
make sure you're using the move tool and just drag and drop your banner on top of the back template. There should be a back and front template. The back is a black rectangle and the front is similar looking but mostly clear, with horizontal lines.

And I finally got around to start adding icons to my games, emulators, and programs. I originally had the Game Icons that where on the XBMC site. I added the code to myprograms.xml and I already have the setting for wide icons in advancedsettings.xml for my videos I guess I don't have to make another for myprograms. I FTPed to my box and deleted all the default.tbn in my games. Then I rebooted and put the wide icon in and renamed it default.tbn. But it still just has the old icon. I know I did the settings right because it only has 1 icon per line.
Here is what I am talking about:

GameSaves
Music
Pictures
Profiles
Programs
Videos
Which would it be?

OK, Easy enough:
you have borders around your pics that aren't transparent, you should erase those. For example Miami Vice is white on the bottom/left (noticeable in original post, not this reply). click on it with the magic wand and it will select that white outside edge and hit delete. The bottom shadow also seems really dark instead of a light blurry shadow. I'm not sure why.
Post by: Leglez on August 11, 2006, 01:36:00 PM
I deleted all of them and rebooted, nothing happened
I deleted E:/Cache and rebooted, nothing happened
I deleted default.tbn then put the icon back in the Black folder named default.tbn and rebooted, nothing happened

I noticed that the 'back' & 'front' templates were different sizes, so I made the 'front' image size the same as the 'back'. Realized that was foolish & put it back. I'm using the 2 templates from xbmc.ckdvt.com. What size do you make your banner?

Like I said, drag the top right corner of the top template to the top right corner of the bottom templete. This way they'll be lined up correctly. There will only be the shadow of the bottom template sticking out a little. My banner is usually 470 x 72. Put this between the two templates. Click in the middle of back template with the magic wand and it will select a black rectangle. Select--inverse. Click on your banner layer. delete. This gets rid of all the outside stuff so it's transparent. Change the top layer opacity to about 50% and you're done.

Post by: lawdawg0931 on August 12, 2006, 08:20:00 PM
This is in no way MY Tutorial. This came from multiple people over the last 58 pages. Thanks to ALL.
Software needed:
Photoshop CS 8 (or higher)
Wide icon templates:
Front template My Webpage
Back Template My Webpage
Yahoo or Google images, also IMDB covers
Step 1. The first thing to do is find a decent picture of the icon you want to create. The larger picture you start with, the better quality you should end up with. 1024 x 768 would be smarter to use than 640 x 480. Try to get something fairly bright, as the process tends to darken things a bit. Save the picture under any format that Photoshop recognizes.
Step 2. Open up Photoshop. Go to File-Open & choose the picture that you saved for your icon. Trim the picture to a shape that will be similar to the wide icon. This way it doesnt look stretched when you adjust it to 470 x 72. Once you have trimmed it, go to ImageImage Size & make it 470 x 72 pixels. Now Save As iconname.png.
Step 3. Now you can go to File-Open & choose the back template you downloaded. Place that towards the top of the working area. Then go to File-Open & choose the front template you downloaded. Place that towards the bottom of the working area. If your iconname.png isnt open, open that & place it in the middle of the working area.
Step 4. Click on the iconname.png window to activate that window. Go up to Select-All. That should show a highlighted border around your whole picture. Now go to Edit-Copy. This allows you to copy the picture where you are going to tell it to. Now click on the back template window to activate that window. Again, go to Select-All to highlight that particular window. Now go to Edit-Paste Into. This copies the icconname.png onto the back template. Now click on the Move Tool (mouse head with 4 arrows) in the left-side tools window; top right tool. Click on your iconname.png that is on the back template & move it to the top right corner of the back template. It should automatically click into place when its close.
Step 5. Now, click on the front template window to activate that window. Go to Select-All to highlight the front template. Go to Edit-Copy to allow you to again copy this somewhere. Click on the back template window to activate this window, then go to Select-All to highlight the whole area again. Now click on Edit-Paste Into to copy the front template onto the back template+iconname.png window. Again, click on the Move Tool & move the front template to the top right corner. It should click into place automatically.
Step 6. Now go down to the bottom right of the Photoshop program window, and you should see 3 tabs in the bottom window down there: Layers, Channels & Path. In the bottom of that window are your 3 working windows. Front template on top, iconname.png in the middle, & Back Template on the bottom. Click on the Back template in that bottom right window (the bottom one). You are selecting that particular layer 0. Now go to the Tools window on the Upper left again, and this time click on the Magic Wand ; top right second one down. Now go up into the working area, and click in the center of the 3 layered icon you have been Pasting Into. Now go up and click Select-Inverse, this highlights everything outside the icon. Now go back down, bottom right to the Layers window. Click on your iconname.png Layer 1. Now hit the Delete key. This deletes everything outside the actual icon. Now click Select-Deselect. This clears the action.
Step 7. Again go down to the bottom right Layers window. This time click on the front template which is Layer 2. Look for the small window within the Layers window that says Opacity-100%. Change that to 50%. Now youre done just click on File-Save As and name it Movie_Name.png
Hope this helps, Sheepie and Tbone6 really were patient in helping me. Thought Id give back!
Any icons made by me before post #861 are not correct. Please do not use them.

not to worry about finding those wide icons, as i have found a guide on how to make my own.
however, i have come up to a bit of an issue.
I have replaced 3 icons with new ones, but in xbmc, they havent updated yet, and are still showing the previous icons i had in the folders. But, when i ftp to the xbox, it shows the new icons in the folder, with the old icon deleted, and no where to be seen.
Is there anything I have to do different to replace the icons? Coz i am stumped!!
Also, thought id share the 2 i have done so far, and get some peoples feedback...

The old icons have been cached so you have to delete them. Go to ../xbmc/userdata/thumbnails and delete the programs and videos folders. Then when you restart xbmc it will look for the icons again and show your new ones.
Also your icons look fine.

QUOTE(tbone6 @ Aug 12 2006, 04:37 PM)
lawdawg use these templates they are the same size. I'm not sure what you did wrong.
Like I said, drag the top right corner of the top template to the top right corner of the bottom templete. This way they'll be lined up correctly. There will only be the shadow of the bottom template sticking out a little. My banner is usually 470 x 72. Put this between the two templates. Click in the middle of back template with the magic wand and it will select a black rectangle. Select--inverse. Click on your banner layer. delete. This gets rid of all the outside stuff so it's transparent. Change the top layer opacity to about 50% and you're done.
I don't think you need to register to download icons, just uploading them.

The site is still working, it's just not being updated. You don't have to be registered to download icons. Instead of adding an image to the cart just click on the image until it shows the entire image and right click, save as.

find an icon you want and save it to your xbox somewhere. Open xboxmediacenter.xml ( i think, whatever the main xml is) and create a thumbnail that points to that file

no idea, most peeps had a prob with layout of the site, think soem others here are working on a new site and it wont be long till it is live
For most part I don't care about the lay out of the web site. But one thing I hate so much is that if I am browsing and looking for a wide icon I only see a square of the image I would like to be able to see the whole image without having to click on it two times 2? well the first time from the square and the second time so I can see it, the default size is 128 x 23 too small, than I have to click it again so I can see it at 460 x 82. such a waste of time browsing for images, I hope the new web site will have this fix..

The registration is working. You don't have to register anyway to search and download icons. Also I'm pretty sure the new site will be much easier to d/l icons, without so many clicks and such. You will be able to view thumbnails of the whole image, not just a square, and then it goes to the large image.

You need to rename it so that the image file is the same name as the video but with .tbn at the end - not .png
ie. if you have superman.avi you need to rename the wide icon to superman.tbn

Are the icons you added wide icons or just regular ones? Because those aren't wide icons. If you want icons for things like your dvd drive and hd you have to specify a thumbnail in the xml. Also try deleting the cache if the icons aren't showing up. Go to
/xbmc/userdata/thumbnails
delete the games and programs folders.

Sorry, that was a bad screen shot. That's not the "view" where I am actually trying to implement the wide icons. The icons i added are wide, and I have added them both to folders in the Video folder on e: and to shared folders on my computer.
I tried deleting the cache folder for Video, but not the games or programs folders. I'll try to delete these later today...

I'm trying to separate my games in folders(cooperative, FPS, racing, etc) but i'm not sure how to do it, any help?
In the games folder make new folders called coop, fps, racing. Then put the games in whatever folder you want. ex: games/fps/halo...games/racing/pgr. Then put the category icon in the corresponding folder and name it folder.jpg. ex: games/fps/folder.jpg (<= fps icon). Then in xboxmediacenter.xml you just have to change the depth it looks through folders. I believe it is at 1, so change it to 2. This will make it look two folder levels deep for your games. If it's at 1 it'll look at GAMES/FPS/(halo). But at 2 it'll look at GAMES/FPS/HALO.

Just rename the PNGs to "folder.jpg". Rename them, don't convert them. Still reads PNG's, they just have to have the filename "folder.jpg" The only other filenames XBMC will read as an icon is "default.tbn" for xbe's and "[foldername].tbn" Shortcuts in XML's can be set by using the .PNG filename in the <thumbnail> tags. And you don't have to register on the site to download the icons, unless you were going to upload some. Then you'll need to register.
yeah i've download all that i wanted.. i just made some icons i wanted to upload..
also i want to have the wide icons for my xbmc but leave the "folder.jpg" for my XPmce as it will only display square icons i believe.. so want your saying is i can call the png anything as long as i <thumbnail> tag it in the xml? or just call it "[foldername].tbn"?

Yeah, I wanted to upload some too. Guess I'm outta luck. But uh, what I'm saying is, for instance, I wanted pretty much all of my bookmarks in sources.xml to have wide icons as well. So in sources.xml for my videos bookmark I have:
CODE
When it's a bookmark in an xml that you're doing a thumbnail for, it doesn't have to be "folder.jpg" or [foldername].tbn As you can see with mine, I just uploaded the plain png and inside of the thumbnail tags, it works. Honestly though, you could have folder.jpg, [foldername].tbn, and the plain png on there for whatever reason. XBMC is gonna check for [foldername].tbn first before it checks for folder.jpg.

Sorry for stating the obvious but....
do you have to register at xbmc.ckdvt.com before you can download ?
I don't think you're stating the obvious, but asking it rather. That being said, I'm answering the obvious.
Post by: xbox_daz on October 07, 2006, 02:40:00 AM
What do you guys do about the Game Titles appearing underneath the Wide Icons ?
Do you leave them or remove them (is there a way to remove them ?)

One way to do it is to change the color of the text. Make sure your xml looks like this:
CODE
I think there is also an option in one of the main menus where you can hide file names.

Can't remember where I grabbed my template from. And as far as "wide icon package"....I don't know what the hell that's about. Read the first page of this thread and it tells you all you have to do to implement wide icons. Just a change in your MyVideo.xml and AdvancedSettings.xml. That's it.

CODE
I'm guessing you add it in AdvancedSettings.xml . I don't wanna get rid of my labels plus I'm too lazy to try
Someone give it a shot and let me know if it works.

<hidelabels>folders</hidelabels>
This removes all the folder names, but keeps the filenames in a list. Alternatively if you want to remove all txt (if you have thumbnails for eps too) just put <hidelabels>all<hidelabels>.

I have two questions however:
How do I remove the gap that the text makes, so there is no gap at al between the icons. I had this working perfect in Project Mayhem skin, but when I tried the same code in MC360 I got the dreaded black screen. PM3:

Also, why are my icons centered, any way to make them wider?
Cheers,

Post by: Katalyst on October 09, 2006, 08:46:00 PM
As far as the centering, just make sure the width is actually 460 in MyVideo.xml and that icons themselves are actually 460 width. Should look like this:

If you want it brighter, lower the opacity of the top layer to about 50%

I'm not sure exactly what your question is. But play around with posx, posy, and the thumb pos until your icons and textures line up where you want them. If you cannot figure it out post the xml and one screen shot of your problem.

the main categories are messed up maybe? or it could be something blatantly obvious that i'm not seeing.
its possible to get to the icons through the random icon link like this --> dvd icons
and like this --> game icons
just a shame its not simple and its a bit slow coz apart from that its a cracking website

When looking at the Guide to setup wide icons in XBMC it says:
XBMC Wicky
AdvancedSettings.xml
<advancedsettings>
<thumbsize>460</thumbsize>
</advancedsettings>
But every other place I look it says:
<AdvancedSettings>
<thumbsize>404</thumbsize>
</AdvancedSettings>
So what is the correct value, is it a PAL and NTSC issue...?
Also people are making great wide icns for Games...But the cahnges is only for the video liberary correct?
What do I have to change to make it work under Programs?

I use 460 in the advanced.xml and it seems to work just fine. You make the edits for programs the same as you did for the video.xml.
Since nobody weighed in on the family guy icons I chose text #5...well my brother did so I'll post the finished ones tonight.

I can do you a WRC icon, but it'll be Subaru inspired.

I tryed the Template and even after adjusting the Transparancy etc it still just gets to dark...
1) Any pointers to this (Do you have to have the "lines" going through the Wide Icon?
Here is the three different versions I made for Buck Rogers (My first attempt)
(I cant upload to the page so you can download it directly from below)
Default settings Front Layer:
Opacity= 100%
Fill= 100%
Top one with Front layer Template Custom settings:
Opacity= 72%
Fill= 27%
Below without it:
2)When you save the PNG file is it then Interlaced or Non Interlaced?
3)And is everyone use the value 460 in the advanced.xml settings ?
There must be a correct and a wrong value...right?
4) What is the size limit saving this to PNG gives a 88KB and others are only 65KB (Any way to compress a PNG file?
PS Yes I know there is a error in the top line...will correct it

Kulprit,
Before you request an icon you may want to do a search on the site here http://xbmc.ckdvt.co...llery2/main.php If after searching you can't find the icon you are looking for than go ahead and request all you want. There are 3 wide icons for heroes on the site. If you don't like neither of the ones there, than find an image you want for your new wide icon, submitted to your request and specified that the other icon on the site are not of your liking and request for it to be re-done. I hope this helps.
Dynaram.

Ok I have search through all 90 something post and here I found this LINK
It looks like he has managed to do this somehow but maybee this was a older build of XBMC because alot of these settings are not listed in the present conf files....
Anyone who have this running/working..... It really would be great to have a listing of episodes and only the folder icon as a wide icon

Could you post or upload the "Andromeda" & "Slider" icon these are not on the webpage... Thanks
Post by: silentbob343 on October 27, 2006, 09:49:00 AM
XBMC is probably going to get some form of native wide icons. Rumor is you supply the picture and the skin will create the Icon. I'm sure there will be other icon control changes as well. I don't know if anybody has really messed with getting the various views to work together so your best bet might be to wait and see what the XBMC devs do.

Would that be a picture in some format size like we do when making these icon with somekind of effect generated on top? Sounds like a weet dream

1. Is there a place where i can download all of the icons in a torrent or a .rar file that anyone knows of? Because the website isn't loading correctly for me.
2. This may not be the place to ask, but I'm not sure where to ask. Is it illegal if I have satellite tv and an ipod to save tv shows as they're playing and put them on my hdd for personal use? If it is piracy i will never ask anything more about it. I am just checking to see if it is kosher to request icons for new seasons of shows that I have not downloaded Illegally, but may have recorded myself from my own tv. I am sorry again if this is any form of piracy talk, I know it's a sensetive subject and I want to know if this constitutes piracy or not.
Thanks everyone!

Until now I have never really used XBMC but maybe for playing music with visuals. Anyways I just installed the new build, and downloaded the MC360 Skin. Pretty nice, but when I add default.tbn into a game or app folder, and reload XBMC it doesn't show the icon. Its funny because I downloaded some new Icons for my emulators, and none of them show exept for the Sega Genesis Icon, and I have named them all default.tbn. I even have a wide Icon for DVDX but it shows up little, and I have add the extra code in MyVideo.xml, still nothing. (I have added the code in Project Gothom 3's my video.xml, and even in the MC 360's XML but with the MC360 skin is just blanks out and I have to reset the dash
I understand the topic is mainly on myVideos.xml, but can you make your games, and apps Icons wide.
None of my games have the tilted icons showing either, and they too have been renamed to default.tbn. I don't think I doing something right. I have looked everywhere, on Wiki, and all through this forum even MC360 sites faqs. any help would be great
Post by: team_toyo on December 05, 2006, 07:24:00 PM
I had a brain fart. I forgot to delete the thumbnail cache, but I'm still wondering about the wide icons for my apps and games. I have tilted icons for my games but one of them is a wide icon, I can't figure out how to enable this under games and apps, much less my videos even after copying the code like I said above. If I have a mixed some tilted and some wide will this affect the apperance of the tilted icon or vise-virsa?

The problem I'm having, and possibly a few others over the past few days, is that the latest XBMC builds appear to have the new v2.1 skins. Most of the content of the xml files in the PM3 folder are considerably different to previous v2.0 skins. There is new functionality in the skins when using XBMC - but unfortunately it appears to have broken the method for enabling wide icons.
Has anyone found how to enable wide icons on the v2.1 skins yet?

The latest T3CH build changed the layout of the MyVideo.xml file. Anyone know what section needs to edited for the wide icons to work? I haven't able to figure it out yet.

I tried your code replacement suggestion (on the current PIMPED 12-8-2006 build), but it didn't work for me.
I can also confirm that this didn't work.

Now like I said this will do it for all media types and you may not want that
If you just want to do it for Videos then you will need to open up MyVideos.xml in the pal dir find this
CODE
and replace it with this
CODE
font10
You can do the same for MyPrograms.xml if you want to use them in that
Now with that being said before jmarshall tells me off for using the old thumbpanel code I am working on a newer version of this thats much nicer to look at and will hopefully be included in pm3 as a default view type some time soon

Guys I just wanted to say that wide icon code has been offically added to current SVN PM3 skin in xbmc so if you can compile your own XBMC you can get it.
To make it look good I suggest you change your icon cache in advancesettings.xml to 192 or 256 ( you don't need to set it to 400 anymore because of the new way xbmc caches icons ) 256 will give you bigger better quality icons cached than what the current 400 does.
To get wide icons I suggest you download the plain ones from this site ( they are at the bottom of each show discription ) http://tvdb.zsori.com/
Once you have the icons name them folder.jpg in the same folder as your show then select the wide icon view types in the View Button ( they are only in Videos and Programs )
The end result will look something like this
My Programs
My Videos

WIDE ICONS OFFICIALLY ADDED TO XBMC
Great work guys! ...I would love to someday see wide-icons as the default view-mode for the new "My TV" section for recorded TV-series/TV-shows (that Spiff is working on together with a dedicated database for those TV-series/TV-shows). However, personaly I could prefer if this wide/banner view-mode only had text under the high-lighted item, like the latest XBMC SVN have for the list view-mode, (I think that it together with the zoom list view-mode have on the high-lighted item would look great).More on XBMC's upcoming "My TV" section can be found here (link)

'Gamester17' from my understanding the TV section is not getting it own section in XBMC but will be a part of My Videos (but have its own IMDB type lookup) and if you want to seperate it then you need to create seperate shares or it.
But the good news is XBMC now also supports saving of view and sort type on a per folder basis instead of a per section basis.
This means that you can have your TV share display wideicons and your Movie share display thumbs or a custom dvdtype view (if you make it) or if you have another misc share it can display in List if you want and XBMC will now remember it each time you enter a folder. (you will probably need to turn off auto switching in the setting section)

also you have to make sure you select wide icon big for your settings. I am running the new XBMC ver

Something odd about the format of the file you posted. Could be the bitdepth or dpi is causing the problem. I did a save for web PNG-24 in photoshop and it fixed the problem. I'll look into this issue. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
PS: what software you use to create it?
